@m_magalhaes thank you so much,you and your code is perfact

thanks ferdinand... something to study when this summer heat is over .-)

Thanks @ferdinand, I've been trying to remove a matrix math library from my software, but having never been taught any of this before (code that is), I was fumbling around in the dark on how to re-assemble things. But I've managed to end up with a blend of C4D and my own functionality, which is fine. The image below probably won't mean much to you, but it tells me it's working correctly again. [image: 1655632350542-218e9cdd-fa5d-4f09-80b9-c2ddc191eb2a-image.png] We can probably mark as solved. WP.

Oh I see.. The ExecutePasses was the key ! Thank you for your answers !

Hey @baca, as I said, the control object structure you want is not possible. I tried and wrote the necessary code when I answered here initially, and Cinema 4D will really start to freak out. You cannot have nested hierarchies of muted caches. If you really want to do this, then you must use the approach proposed by me. If you want to also hide the objects in renderings, then you will have to also set that parameter. If you poke around long enough, you might find a solution by muting the caches, but this is out of scope of support. As I said, I did already try when I wrote my first posting, maybe you have more luck. But as also stated in my first posting, you are poking here the sleeping bear called "classic API node dependencies". Cheers, Ferdinand

Hi there, I have a similar problem. But I use R25 version. If I write exporterID[c4d.FBXEXPORT_SDS] = True or exporterID[c4d.FBXEXPORT_SDS] = False I get error AttributeError: parameter set failed If I comment or remove this line, export works fine. Maybe I should create a new topic with this issue.

Sorry for the late reply In order to do that you will need to start a new thread, and you need to keep alive the thread as long as it execute, meaning you will need to store it in a global variable. Best way would be to reach octane directly as 3rd party are free to implement this as they want. Cheers, Maxime.

Hello! Sorry for not providing any specific info about the problem, it was not really aything to provide in fact. Your last guess about document related stuff is absolutely correct. There is a piece of code responsible for handling a license which was indeed using documents. Thanks!

Hi @m_adam , It is unfortunate because I thought it would be useful if it were available, but I understand. Thank you for your prompt response!

Hello @fss, Thank you for reaching out to us. I understand your general question, but some aspects are unclear to me. What plugin interfaces/hooks are involved (CommandData, ObjectData, ...)? Your posting somewhat implies that you want to rely inside PluginStart (which is not technically part of a plugin interface) on another plugin being loaded, is that true? If you are in PluginStart(), at which boot message (the ones emmited to PluginStart) are you trying to determine if some plugin X has been registered? But i logged those out and it always seemed to be called before the commandline arguments are processed. I am not quite sure what is meant with 'logged those out' here? The quick answer is to call c4d.plugins.FindPlugin to determine if a plugin is accessible, but depending on what you are trying to do, this might not the right way. Cheers, Ferdinand
